Pegasus Keeps Exes Informed To inform King alumni was the purpose of Pegasus, a quarterly publication. Pegasus, in its second year, focused on school activities and personal information of ex -students. The 6-pa e mimeographed news letter was edited by seniors Jonizo Cain and Cherie Clark, who worked with several volunteers collecting, typing up and mailing out the sorted information. Sponsored by Principal Kent Pogue. the publication was distributed free to all King exes, asking only in return a small donation of money or information. Reaction to Pegasus centered on lauda- tory notes, as ex-students from across the nation and overseas wrote Pegasus staffers to praise the communication effort. r £ P ' ....- jftr-. gasus co-editors lonizo Cam (left) .ind i;hiri.

Armed witli rulers, red pens, pencils, proportion wheels, layout sheets, tri-paks, photos, typewriters and more photographs, the 36 members of the 1971 Coronat staff lived the year between headaches and happy exhaustion as dead lines came, were met and faded into the past. Nothing could keep the staff down, not even the fact that just two days before the first deadline the wrong size tripaks were sent or that during one Saturday morning work session, co-editor Nancy Castleberry remained trapped in a darkened hallway for 45 minutes before other staffers rescued her. The everyday nish for one of the four typewriters kept everybody on his toes as Nancy and Rae Hewlett managed to assist the .section editors while issuing orders to the overworked photographers. Miss Chris Davis, sponsor, confessed to yearbook nightmares — none of which occurred. . summer workshop at Trinity Univer- sity and various workshops during th e year added to the staff s activities.
